The Suspension of Ghosts

Meet Naledi Khumalo, a seventeen-year-old in Cape Town who can physically see the "ghostly tributaries" of people’s alternate futures. For years, she has carried a heavy weight of guilt, seeing all the brilliant lives her father "sacrificed" to raise her.

Everything changes when she discovers a mysterious shop called Cards of Alternate Routes and meets Auntie Thandi, who teaches her the profound wisdom of The Hanged Man. Join us for a journey of magical realism as Naledi learns that choosing one life isn't a tragic loss—it is the only way to become fully human.

Also featuring The Hanged Man and the Five of Pentacles.
